Recipes »  Main Dish  »  Pasta

Lemon juice adds bright acidity and makes all the difference in such a simple dish. Garnish with a slice of lemon to enhance the citrus effect. Serve with Cherry Tomato Caprese Salad.

"Excellent - next time I'll reserve 1/2 cup of the pasta water to add to the skillet at the end." - sbjonas
